THE NORRIS Sun came out last
week a regular .boomer" for Morris
and Stevens county. It devotes six
columns to the village and as many
more to the county at large, with
several cuts of the more prominent
buildings, with map of Stevens county.
The subject matter of the paper

TO THE EDITOR
It's fact. From dav to day and
year to year we move around where
we live aud never n.tice what is
doing about us, until 1t is brought
all at once before our astonished gaze
as your excellent issue of last week.
We are asked: Does Norris grow!
Is Stevens county improving! And
we answer with Il vague idea of what
is expected of us to say in non-com-
initial sort of way. The fact of the
matter is we don't know. We're
having natural growth-ls as near
enthusiasm as we can go, and our
interrogation turns on his heel, un
satisfied. / am gcing to nail your
figures to the mast, and I'm going to
study them, and am going to dis
se!hminate them, and am going to
give credit to THE Sun for its very
bad break from "Sleepy Hollow and
warmed.over journalism. Shake!

Of the saloons injured the business of
the city without really putting stop to
the liquor traffic. The effect
of prohibition was only to en-
courage a spirit of lawlessnesS.
That was the argument of the ''wets."
On the other hand, the ''drys" claimed
that business was just as brisk during
the year of prohibition as it was i'll the
days of the saloon, and that the commu-
nifty had never before been so orderly
and law-ahiding. The two sides Joined
issue in the election which came off
yesterday, and for two weeks past it has
been the most exciting contest ever
known in a section famous for its cleo
ton excitement. Although it was
local contest, men of state and national
reputation took an active part in
it. The two Georgia senators di-
yided on the question, Senator
COLQUITT taking the side of the prohi-
bitionists, and Senator BROWN aligning
himself with the ''WetS," and both of
them participating most actively in the
fight. Gov. GORDON and Editor GRADY
also took the stump for prohibition,
while Editor HOWELL welded his
trenchant pen in opposition. The fail
ure of prohibition in Atlanta is not due
to the lack of able leadership. 1t was
simply protest of the people against
the effort to apply the sumptuary law

A MUTUAL LIKING.

To a recent caller the president de-
clared that he liked young men, both in
official and social life, and always
sought to surround himself with them.
Though he was not unaware of the pro-
priety of going to old men for advice
and counsel. it was the young men upon
whom he depended for action and upon
whom he found he could depend.
The experience of the West, where
young men forge rapidly to the front
and occupy positions of responsibility
refused to men of twice their years in
the conservative East, illustrates the
sOundnesS of the presidents judy
ment. He is right in liking the young
men, the men who possess enough years
for maturity of mind and not too many
for the exhibition on occasion of ell
ergy and enthusiasm. And by cOinci-
dence which is not very singular, when
you consider all the circumstances, the
young men like President CLEVELAND.
They like him so well that they are
going to insist upon his administering
the affairs of the government for an
other four years. For you must bear
in mind that it is the young men who do
the insisting in this country. When the
voters march up to the ballot box you
will discover that the young men out
number the old stagerS by large ma
jOrity. 1t is according to the laws of
nature. And the day has passed. too,
when the young men were held in polit-
ical leading strings by the venerable
party managers, who were as apt to
fancy that they knew it all as they we're
ready to accuse the young fellows of
from twenty-One to fifty of that cOnceit.
They have been emancipated. They
think for themselves and act for them
selves now. They can dare to have
their own likes and dislikes. And in a
little less than year from this time they
will show President CLEVELAND in a
very practical way, indeed, that the
liking which he entertainS for them is
in the highest degree reciprocal.

MEN WHO TALK.
Hon. O. Nj. Hall.

State Senator o. NJ. HALL, of Red
Wing-One of the strongest reasons for
Insisting upon the location of the state
reform school at our town grows out of
a disposition to encourage rather than to
depress our people in their efforts to
make Red Wing a thriving community.
They have been somewhat respondent
over the ravageS of the chinch bug on
the wheat crop during the past season,
and when the commission selected the
site that we offered them it was consid-
cred TO be the Inauguration of boom
which could not but rebound to our COM
mercial prosperity. So far as the mere
location of the school itself is concerned,
there would not be much impetus given
trade by its presence. but the erection of
the eleven new buildings proposed
would stimulate building operations and
show that the state appreciated the i'm
pOrtance of our growing city. But the
delays that have marked the conduct of
affairs by the managers of the reform
school have had tendency to diScour-
age even the most sanguine of our peO-
pie, and they were only aroused from
their lethargy by the prospect of sue
cess finally browning their efforts, and
which led to an indignation meeting last
Tuesday. In the two days that elapsed
between the night of the gathering and
the presentation of the petition to Gov.
MCGILL, Friday, over LOCO signatures.
were obtained to the document, and this
will give an idea of the enthusiasm
manifested on the subject so fraught
with Importance to Red Wing.

ton by the citizens of Helena, during
our recent visit to that city in connec-
ton with the extension of the Manitoba
road. The people are the most hOspi-
table that can be imagined, ami they re-
ceiyed us with open arms and were 10th
to part with us. The new road passes
through a country of wonderful posi-
bilitieS, and white onions could be raised
every foot of the twelve hundred miles
that intervene between st. Paul and
Helena. The bonds between the two
cities are bound to be strengthened. and
a generous spirit of rivalry that will be
engendered cannot fail to materially in
crease the commercial prosperity of
both.

W. G.. STRICKLAND, Insurance Agent
Now that the SNOW GaS come it begins
to look as though business you'd in
crease in every branch of industry IN
the vicinity of st. Paul, for it has been
my observation that such is the iueyi,a-
BILE result after the first snoY flies. Last
year the business season began tritic
earlier, the first heavy snow coming
upon us about the 18th of November.
All manner of people are benefited, and
in this latitude snow seems to be nee
eSsary adjunct. Some of the liverymen
have been grumbling that they were not
making horse feed, but the harvest is at
hand and they will undoubtedly make
the most of it. Shoe men. too, have
been complaining of dull times, but a
boom is on to-day in arctics and rubber
Cvershoes, so that the old adaSe about it
being an i'll wind that blows no good j.:
likely to be verified III this instance.
There is likely to he quiet season ECw
among real estate dealers, Tut they will
be kept busy during the winter In their
offices working up boorlS for The spring,
when snaps will be offered all cye- he
Northwest. There seems &c lie no
abatement in the demand for good prop
erty, and st. Paul is most promising
field for future operations, despite the
fact that it has been 90 we'll picked over

WOMEN MANAGERS.

Gov. HILL, of New York, made new
departure the other day, and very
good one, by appointing two lady MEN,
bers of the board of managers of the
state insane asylum at Buffalo. There
is 10 statute in New York requiring any
of the managers to be women, but Gov.
HILL made the appOintmentSin response
to petitions from numerous organ
iZations of ladies in various parts of the
state, and because he recognized the
propriety of having a minority of the
board TO consist of women in the man
agement of an institution in which a
large number of women patients are
confined. The wisdom displayed by
Gov HILL in this matter will be univer-
sally recognized. and his example ought
to be followed in all the states. In fact,
the women ought to have representa-
ton on all the boards in control of our
public institutions. In addition to the
propriety of such a thing with
reference to the constitution of boards
of management of insane asylums. deaf.
dumb and blind institutions, prisons
and reformatorieS, and all institutions
where females are kept, there is an
other reason why women should be
represented on the boards. Women
have more of the instinct of inquisitiye-
ness than men. They possess faculty
for finding out things which men do not
possess. They pay more attention TO
details and have genius for investiga-
ton. Because of this fact women make
the best detectives in the world. There
are a thousand little things essential to
the comfort of the inmates of our public
Institutions which would never
occur to the average man. To
him they would appear as trIlles too in
significant to merit attention. But put
a woman in his place and she would
readily enough detect them, and soon
demonstrate the necessity for giving at
tention to these apparently trifiing mat
tiers. Then again, women are more
sympathetic than men. They arc more
easily touched by the sufferingS and
misfortunes of others. 1t is because
they are angels by nature that they
should be invested with power in cases
where angelic treatment is needed. And
still additional advantage oof having
women representatives on the
public boards is that an hon.
est administration would be as

Col. 2. B. GrOat.

Col. P. B. GROAT, Emigration Agent
of the Northern Pacific Railroad-The
emigration to the states and territories
along the line of the Northern Pacific
railroad during the spring and summer
of this year has been very satisfactory,
and that to Washington territory has
been unusually heavy, and still con-
tinues to move in larger numbers than
it has in any previous fall months. The
land sales to settlers in Minnesota and
North Dakota show a notable increase
over these of 1886, and the number of
the letters of inquiry received by the
land department of the Northern Pa
cific Railroad company, concerning
lands and the advantages which the
Northwest offers for homes, indicates
that large increase in settlement in
this region may be anticipated during
the coming year. 1t is impossible at
this time to give the figures showing
the number of emigrants who have To-
Gated in the several states and terri
tories traversed by the line of road, as
the figures are not tabulated until the
close of the fiscal year. The short
crop of 1856 so general throughout the
states, and which was also experienced
i'll the Northwest territories, tended to
restrain emigration, and the unfriendly
rulings of the United States general
land office have had a tendency
to deter many settlers from
seeking new homes on the
government lands. But with all these
drawbacks the settlement has been very
satisfactory. 1t is becoming more gen
orally known that about the only large
areas of agricultural lands of the gov
eminent that are now open for settle
ment are located in the Northwest. In
Dakota alone there are about &c, 200, 900
acres of agricultural lands of the gov
eminent open for occupancy, of which
about 1S,000,0 900 are in North Dakota. In
Washington territory there are upwards
of 20,000,000 acres of agricultural lands
of the government open for entry by ac-
tual settlers. The emigration to Mon
tana and Northern Idaho has been large
and is constantly on the increase, the
settlers being attracted thither by the
grazing and mineral resources of these
regions. e. 80
THE situation of farmers in North Da-
kbta this fall is much better than for
the same period last year, and in East
ern Dakota especially crops have been
larger than ever before.
